UPDATE: JASON X wins the day as the most obvious miss from the list. I've updated the list with what people (well, let's be honest, what JASON) have added, and added an asterisk to the Empire entry, again courtesy Jason.
MOVIES:
• 2001
• Planet of the Apes (both)
• Alien
• Lost in Space
• Rocketman
• Minority Report
• Judge Dredd
• Demolition Man
• Sleeper
• Empire Strikes Back
• Idiocracy
• Event Horizon
• Solstice
• Solaris (original)
• Red Planet
• X Files
• Batman and Robin
• Austin Powers
• Forever Young
• Live Again, Die Again
• Jason X
• Strange New World
TV SERIES:
• Futurama
• Farscape
• Star Trek ("Space Seed" - the episode with Khan)
• Buck Rogers
• Twilight Zone episode "Quarantine" (nice catch, Kathryn)
Sequels don't count (Aliens and Return of the Jedi are OUT). Neither do movies where things are frozen and come back to life when thawed (like The Thing or Brendan Fraser in Encino Man), though that may be a good follow-up list.
There are no prizes and there is no reason I'm compiling this list. It just started as a conversation in Louisiana, continued tonight, and I feel like I'm missing some. So jump in in comments.

Live Again, Die Again
Firefly...maybe...The Episode "The Message" a their war buddy had suspended his body by use of a drug...I don't think that counts
Buck Rogers (tv show)
Strange New World
You said no sequels, but you blatantly have Empire Strikes Back on there. This list is ruined!
No, because Han Solo only gets put in carbonite in Empire. Jedi would be the sequel to Empire that ALSO has Han in carbonite.
Dude:
Encino Man!
And the Twilight Zone episode "Quarantine"
And South Park episode "Go and Go"
Here's a link for Quarantine:
And the South Park is actually titled "Go GOD Go" where Cartman freezes himself so he doesn't have to wait for the Wii to be released.
Crap. As usual, I failed to read all the directions.
F! Fail!
Well Han was "Frozen in carbonite" - not exactly in suspended animation, so it still doesn't deserve to be on this list.
And don't forget "Night of the Creeps". Or "Jason X". Yeah, you heard me - "Jason X".
